Bajaj Auto has homologated the KTM Duke 200 with FMSCI (Federation of Motorsports Clubs of India). This means racers can now officially use the Orange pocket rocket for bike races and rallies across the country. The bike has already achieved success in the 2012 Mughal Road Rally where it secured a victory on its debut

Given that the Austrian company KTM has long involvement in various forms of racing and the fact that Duke 200 has impressed many with its performance and handling, the news of the homologation is expected to go down well in the bike racing community. This move is also expected to help Bajaj strengthen its foothold in the Indian bike racing scenario. Click here to see the FMSCI specs on the Homologation of the KTM Duke 200.

However, we are not expecting a one make serie of the KTM Duke 200 as yet. But, it will certainly fetaure in the cross-country and rally events like the Raid de Himalaya, Desert Storm and others.
